Wednesday, October 10th, 2007
Radiohead have released a new album. In Rainbows is available as of today as a download-only zip-file from their website inrainbows.com. You can also order a discbox which consists of the new album on CD and on 2 x 12 inch heavyweight vinyl records . It comes along with a second, enhanced CD containing more new songs. The package also features digital photographs, artwork and lyric booklets, all encased in a hardback book and slipcase. The discbox can be ordered from the same website and ships for BPN 40,00 on or before Dec 3, 2007. It features 10 songs:
- 15 STEP
- BODYSNATCHERS
- NUDE
- WEIRD FISHES/ARPEGGI
- ALL I NEED
- FAUST ARP
- RECKONER
- HOUSE OF CARDS
- JIGSAW FALLING INTO PLACE
- VIDEOTAPE
The new album follows the avant-garde route the previous records have taken but, at first listen, appears more accessible than, for example, Kid A . Still it paints a bleak, desolate soundscape, interspersed by faster guitar tracks, which still cannot escape the melancholy . Download the new album from: inrainbows.com

When Ernst called me in April 2006, I was one of the very few to be introduced into his secret plan. Indulging his penchant for instigating surprises he asked me for some strategic input to bolster up his plan for a wedding proposal which should take place on the Empire State Building in New York City with Lisa, his girl-friend, coming there unaware of what would happen. Since Lisa works for Campus 02 in Graz, we fleshed out a strategy that would direct her to New York City with a view to attending an international conference of open universities. On that conference she was supposed to introduce her university in front of a host of international university representatives.
